Abstract
The tap has a tap bushing (10) with a passage opening (34) for the liquid to be discharged. A piston (12) is guided so as to move axially within the tap bushing (10) and has an entry opening (36) and an exit opening (38) for the liquid. The piston (12) closes off the passage opening (34) in a locked position when it is moved in. The entry opening (36) of the piston (12) is in connection with the passage opening (34) in an extended position of the piston (12). A locking bushing (14) that is guided to rotate on the piston (12) is seated in the piston (12), which locking bushing (14) optionally closes off the exit opening (38) or brings it into connection with a passage opening (44) of the locking bushing (14).
Claims18
Tap for discharging liquid from a container, with a tap bushing that can be set into an opening in said container, with a seal, said tap bushing is provided with a passage opening for said liquid, and with a piston guided so as to move axially within said tap bushing, said piston has an entry opening and an exit opening for said liquid, whereby said piston closes off the passage opening of said tap bushing in a locked position when it is moved into said tap bushing, and whereby said entry opening of the piston is in connection with said passage opening of said tap bushing in an extended position of said piston, in which it is moved out of said tap bushing, and a flow path through said piston can be released and blocked off by means of rotational activation, wherein a locking bushing that is guided to rotate on said piston is seated in said piston, said locking bushing has a passage opening and can be rotated from a locked position in which it closes off said exit opening of said piston, into a release position in which said exit opening of said piston is in connection with said passage opening, and can be rotated back to a locked position closing off said exit opening of said piston.
